Audio-Technica Announces A1000X and A2000X
May 21, 2014 at 5:21 PM Post #76 of 77
Disarming how the forward midrange can, with certain recordings, seem to isolate/insulate vocals, for instance.  With "Lost Woman" from the Yardbirds' Roger the Engineer [aka Over, Under, Sideways, Down] Keith Relph's vocal is rendered in a stark, almost "acapella" manner in relationship with the supporting instrumentation.  
 
Acoustic guitar is a treat with these headphones, highlighting their seemingly endless reserves of midrange-sustained detail.  
 
The W1000X are due to arrive next week.  I plan to a/b the A1000X with the W1000X and keep the winner.
